Is always check spelling before sending selected in tools | Options | The spelling? See if it sends OK with it is unchecked.  If this isn't the case, it may be a coincidence. Try a new box of sent, and sent items.

You have apparent dbx file corruption.

Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and then create new folders to send and sent items box after having moved the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create.

Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

With OE closed, find the DBX files for the items in the Outbox and sent and delete them.  New ones will be created automatically when you open OE.

After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

General precautions for Outlook Express:

Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program.

  • How to stop outlook express does not send emails more because of an email earlier had a wrong address

    Sorry if this is an old topic but I can't find any info about it:

    Sending 6 or 7 emails via outlook express, if you have a bad email address none of the sent emails after will go that they all sit in the Outbox queue behind the bad email. is there any how to make outlook express send other emails and just let the bad email? It is very annoying because I don't get to see the real prospects and know its happened when people say that they did not receive the email

    Is the message with the wrong address still in the Outbox?

    It is a question that is more how your ISP handles these messages. Some will accept the message and send you a Mailer Daemon note that the message has been delivered. In this case, it left your Outbox.

    Other service providers Internet will not accept the message to all who let her in your Outbox and blocks all future messages. There is no setting in OE to get around the policy from your ISP.

    Does that help?

  • Outlook Express won't send or answer...

    For the 1st time in about 7 years... I can't send emails on my Outlook Express.  It receives very well but I can not send or answer.  Any suggestions?

    If you use OE, it sounds as if you have message store corruption. Try to go to file | Identities and setup a new identity.  Add your email account it and then see if it works fine.  If she then use file | Import | Messages to bring them from the old identity.

  • Outlook express does not send receive

    After the reboot of my office, O.E. works very well in all directions. But after a few hours, he stops to receive mail in its automatic configuration mode. When I click on send or receive, I don't see ever typical status window. I tried l ' down and restart and notice that I don't get OE logo screen that I normally do, it just goes to the Inbox or whatever it is I last looked and it comes faster than normal. In addition, I noticed sometimes that when I go in my sent mail folder or Inbox, newer than 2009 messages do not appear.  Switch back will sometimes fix it, but not always. Restart will fix all the problems that I said at the beginning. Last week, there was yet another peculiarity which lasted maybe an hour. Click Send and Receive has nothing, but hit CTRL + M brought to work. And earlier I tried clicking on receive and voila it worked fine for the first time since 11:36 AM CDT. Unfortunately, I did not send the mail. The suite send or receive tests continue to fail. I tried to install Mozilla Thunderbird and it seems to work very well, but I would largely continue to use OE.

    I use the update of the window in automatic mode and have known no other problems EXCEPT a week ago, Malwarebbyste has found 2 virus files which I immediately deleted. Since then, Malwarebytes always freezes when I put it for a complete analysis. After that, I installed Adaware and have run MRT of MS, SFC and another whose name escapes me now. They have all found nothing. I think THAT OE problems began earlier than that.

    My opus system is XP Pro SP 3. My OE is 6.00.2900.5812 and my IE is 8.0.6601.18702. My internet connection is cable Comcast.

    I wasn't expecting to find IE listed in my Add / Remove programs but it is there. Because I think that OE comes with IE, it sems like maybe I should try uninstalling and reinstalling. Would it be a good idea? Also, I looked at IE 9 downloads but they do not seem to exist. Designated as IE 9 download sites seem to only have IE8

    It seems that there must be a better way

    Spent many hours on the phone with technical support of at & t reset my email ID and password.  My mail to yahoo at & t sending and reception, but the same message generates a Mailer Daemon failure notice when sent from Outlook Express for XP. at & t said that there is a Microsoft bug that they cannot solve. Who can help me to solve this problem that just started last night after years of functioning? Please contact me at * address email is removed from the privacy *. Thank you.

    Why always a message in Oulook Express that the recipient of this message is not digitally signed, and then another one saying unencrypted and I click send anyway. How can I remove all this and just be able to send directly to who I want? When Outlook is genrating and alert error there are no detaisl provided on the error.

    Start over.  First eliminate interference antivirus (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).  After that go to file | Identities and editing and new identity.  Set up your e-mail account to the$ T, and then use the settings they specify on their website for OE and also told you to support.  (OE can connect and send to THE$ T, there is therefore no clear 'bug' with OE towards them).  See if it works then.
